Anybody know how to extract the map from the end of the PDF
document marketone.pdf ? I have tried copying it from the main file
but it loses definition.


Click on the snapshot tool, and then click on the graphic. It is then
on the clipboard. Press F4 when you have the graphic on screen for
instructions.


Open a graphics programme and paste it in. If you do this with the
complete page, you will get poor definition. If you increase the size
to 200% or more, you will get a higher definition, but will have to
copy in sections and form a mosaic.


With the version of Adobe I use you can zoom after you select the area.
So, select the area you want, zoom it, then copy. Even if part of the
window is not visible you will get it all.

I tried all those tricks before asking for help. It doesn't make a large
copy at all and if you try to enlarge it the definition is lousy. What I
really need is the map alone as a PDF file at 200% but without all the other
38 pages. The source file is almost 1Mb (marketone.pdf) at
http://www.londontransport.co.uk/tfl.../marketone.pdf
so if anybody can extract that page is pdf format or tell me how to do it I
shall be most grateful.
Thanks guys,
Baz

I still don't understand why you don't just use marketone.pdf as is. What do
you want to do with it that you can't do with the full file? The map alone
probably takes up about two-thirds of the bytes of the PDF.

I have the UITP version of the map from a few years ago, but that contains
several versions of the same map and is an even larger file than
marketone.pdf.

That's why my vehicle's the Piccadilly Line -
It's the size of a county and it comes every two and a half minutes

2nd attempt:

There's a nag-ware utility called pdfedit995 which will do this.

Thanks, Roland. Unfortunately the downloaded file is corrupted (tried 3
times) but I'll try again another day.
Cheerz,
Baz

Either use the freeware tool already suggested to snip off the last
page, or else email me and I'll send it to you - it's a 1MB file once
you take off the first 38 pages.
